description

The paper presents a methodology for the design of the manufacturing cells, covering all the necessary steps, from the analysis of the customers’ needs, to part families for group technologies, process engineering, control procedures, production rate, production planning (push or pull workflow), supply in the manufacturing cell, workcell configuration, work standardisation. The necessary tools through each stage are presented. Also, there are presented links to major company systems. For each design stage, deliverables are specified. this design approach is not linear. At each stage it is possible (and indicated) to go back and analyse the previously established parameters. The methodology is a complex one, and in a wider space the detailed parameters will be presented in extenso.
